Graco 17X165 Connector,2 offers robust performance in high-pressure environments, designed to optimize fluid transfer in industrial and commercial spraying. A vital link between pump and hose assemblies, this connector delivers consistent flow rates while minimizing downtime caused by leaks or component wear. Materials have been carefully selected to withstand abrasive coatings and solvents commonly used on job sites, ensuring longevity under rigorous operational cycles. Technicians appreciate its ergonomic profile, which simplifies tightening and loosening even when wearing protective gloves.
Flow dynamics within a sprayer system hinge on the precision of each coupling, and this connector excels in preventing turbulence and pressure drops. Proprietary thread geometry has been engineered to deliver smooth internal surfaces that reduce coating buildup and maintain consistent output. Accurate tolerances in the O-ring seat guarantee a tight seal, even at pressures exceeding industry benchmarks. Field studies reveal that incorporating this connector into a standard configuration can yield up to a 10% improvement in volumetric efficiency.
Integration with a range of graco sprayer accessories allows professionals to customize their spray setup according to project demands. Compatibility extends across multiple Graco pump series, offering a plug-and-play experience that cuts setup time. Adaptable design accommodates both fluid and air lines, making this connector a versatile addition to any maintenance toolkit. Users report that switching between base material coatings and specialized finishes becomes more streamlined when relying on this coupling.
Connector is designed to integrate with core graco pump parts in both hydraulic and air-operated models, ensuring a cohesive interface across different platform architectures. Custom-fitting tolerances facilitate effortless pairing with existing manifolds and adapters, eliminating retrofit headaches. Collaborative engineering between fluid control and pump design teams informs thread profiles, enabling superior seal retention under dynamic load conditions. Cross-compatibility stamps this connector as a universal solution for service fleets.
Materials science plays a pivotal role in high-wear environments, and austenitic stainless steel selected for this connector resists pitting, cracking, and chemical attack. Heat treatments applied during manufacturing enhance hardness, ensuring that threads remain sharp under repeated torque. Surface finishes comply with tight Ra specifications, reducing surface friction and preventing corrosion in high-humidity conditions. Performance tests under accelerated aging protocols confirm that these connectors maintain structural integrity far longer than aftermarket alternatives.
Periodic inspection and cleaning can be facilitated by keeping a graco gun repair kit on hand, ensuring seals and threads remain free from contaminants. Thread lubricant compatibility ensures smooth operations without compromising seal materials. Proper maintenance routines extend the operational lifespan of both connector and adjoining components. Regularly scheduled service checks, combined with visual inspection for nicks or thread deformation, keep the system running at peak efficiency.
Operation at pressures up to 3,000 psi calls for components that won’t falter under strain, and this connector stands up to such demands. Hydrostatic testing during production certifies every unit for reliable performance. In demanding industrial environments, maintaining consistent pressure while transferring thick coatings requires a coupling that tolerates cyclical loading without fatigue. This connector’s design minimizes cross-sectional stress concentrations, mitigating the risk of microfractures.
Precision CNC machining yields exacting dimensions: 1/4-inch NPT industrial threads, 0.50-inch hex, and overall length of 1.2 inches. O-ring groove conforms to AS568 standards, allowing quick replacement. Pressure rating surpasses 207 bar, making it suitable for a wide spectrum of fluid viscosities. Surface finish measured at less than 0.8 Ra promotes smooth coupling action, facilitating quick connect/disconnect cycles.
Proper installation begins with verifying thread compatibility, applying an appropriate sealant or tape where recommended by system guidelines, and hand-tightening until snug. A torque wrench can then be used to achieve the specified torque value without exceeding the maximum recommended torque, preserving thread integrity. Flushing lines post-installation removes any residual debris, preventing nozzle clogs and ensuring consistent spray patterns. Routine torque auditing maintains uniform sealing properties across all connectors in the system.
